Ann [Hutchinson Guest] also describes axial movement on page 54 of Your Move as “When moving around our center without changing location (known as ‘axial’ movement), we find we are in the center of a sphere.” I have always understood axial movement to be non-locomotor but also have reference to moving around one’s axis, therefore incorporating twisting/rotating but not stepping. Don’t know if this is helpful, but I’ll look for more information.
